Animated Short Films (on youtube or wherever)

Kiwi wanted to know how it feels to fly,like other birds, before committing a sadly end. :(

[Art Blade]

the kiwi can't fly. He nailed the trees to a vertical plane so when falling down it would appear to the kiwi as if flying over ground and tree tops.

I see. I must be slow this week :-[ :-()

[Art Blade]

Nothing wrong with that. Just abstain from catching snails.. you know.. like, chop-chop, they're off and away :)

[Binnatics]

 :-D Heheh....

But I needed the explanation too ;)

Nice vid indeed. It reminds me of the squirrel in Ice Age:

Funniest Scrat Moments (ORIGINAL UPLOAD)

[Art Blade]

Scrat is great, always cracks me up :)

[fragger]

Me too :-X

[mandru]

Heh heh heh.  ^-^

I like the following vid -- watch out, Portal friends (and everyone else, of course)  :)
[♪] Portal - Dumb Ways To Die

[mandru]

 

[fragger]

 :-D

"...Wait around for Half-Life 3" - lol

[Binnatics]

:-D

"...Wait around for Half-Life 3" - lol

That's the one that triggered me as well

Good vid, good find ;)

[mandru]

Ok.  Yes it's related to a game I'll never play and even though it's a commercial I like this.

The sheer simplicity of this add and with only two words spoken through its entire length I'm genuinely impressed at the power this piece is able to deliver.

[Art Blade]

 ???  :-()

just by the way, I removed the "s" from "https" so it would embed.

[mandru]

I didn't mind that there wasn't a preview screen as it takes away a bit of the ad's impact but thanks Art it's still good.  :)

[Stiku]

I hope, you got a good compensation from Blizzard, for posting that in here  :-))

[Art Blade]

 :)

mandru, you can remove the "s" and then slap spoiler tags around that link. that way it'd pop up here rather than having to bail out to watch it on YT. I just did that for you, hope it's the way you intended it to be ;)

[PZ]

Good idea about the spoiler tag - I forget that being useful for videos to allow the page to load faster.

You can always watch on YouTube anyway - now that YT does 1080, I like watching on the YT site because you can see so much more.

[Art Blade]

 ;)

[mandru]

It looks good now.

Sorry, I habitually right click and open in a new window when I don't want to leave a page so I didn't even think the way I posted that might be problematic for someone else.  Oh and the suggestion to capture vid links in a spoiler for faster page load is a good thing to remember.

[mandru]

Good cgi is animation, right?

here the YT link to the vid

[Art Blade]

CGI is animation in my books, yes :)

[Art Blade]

by the way, that vid of yours, if you click on "watch on YT" you can get the actual link, saving us to go through other sites just to end up with a YT vid anyway -- I just edited your post putting exactly that into spoiler tags. ;)

[Art Blade]

wow, that was a cool film, mandru :-X

[fragger]

Terrific vid :-X

mandru, I've been checking occasionally on the progress of the Rosetta mission and with the landing yesterday I was going to post something about it, but you beat me to it in a very cool way :-()
